I ♥ This Magazine! (This Month's Magazine Choice): Nylon Magazine

Every month I'll post different This Month's Magazine Choice' choices.

Here's whats in store in NYLON Magazine this month. And why you should go pick up your own copy now!

Gracing the cover of NYLON Magazine this month is No Doubt's leading rocker chick, Gwen Stefani. Check her out below!




On the cover Gwen is wearing a white, collar shirt and tartan trousers with black suspenders.

Here’s what the 43-year-old singer had to share with the mag:

Gwen Stefani on fame: “I’m telling you right now, being Number One or playing in a garage–they’re both super fun.”


Tom Dumont on testing the reunion waters: “We had to get over that uncertainty of not knowing if what we were working on was good. The whole album is capturing little sparks, little snapshots. You cast away all the mediocre ones and keep the ones that are good.”

Gwen Stefani on how she gets inspired: “I got all my favorite people that I work with [together] and we had a creative day. We basically all sat around with our art books and [magazine] tears and just put them up and did collages and tried to get a direction. We ended up not using anything, but it was really fun.”

Tom Dumont on the one type of music No Doubt could never master: “You know what? Jam music. I don’t think we could jam.”

Gwen Stefani on the evolving music world (the MTV VMAs included): “It used to have so much weight. People even paid attention to the categories! Now if you win one–I don’t even think anyone takes your picture. It’s like, whatever.”

Check out some more pics of Gwen and fellow No Doubt members, that also feature in the mag below!

I ♥ This Magazine! (This Month's Magazine Choice): Seventeen Magazine

Every month I'll post different 'This Month's Magazine Choice' choices.

Here's whats in store in SEVENTEEN Magazine this month. And why you should go pick up your own copy now!

Gracing the cover of SEVENTEEN Magazine this month is Vampire Diaries star, Nina Dobrev.Check her out below!



On the cover Nina is wearing a fuchsia and magenta-colored knit turtleneck sweater with matching knitted scarf along with a wide-brimmed, red leather skirt. Matched with a multicolorful, tribal necklace that serves as an accessory.

Here’s what the 23-year-old actress had to share with the mag:

On Her Character's Abusive Relationship In The Perks Of Being A Wallflower—
“It's a really heavy topic, and I hope my character gives girls some perspective. I think more than anything, girls allow abuse to happen because they’re embarrassed it happened and that they allowed it to happen. They know it's not right. There's no excuse for it. That’s why it’s so important to show girls that they can admit that it's not their fault.”
  

On Her Relationship With Vampire Diaries Co-Star, Ian
“The first time I was on the cover of Seventeen, the cover line said 'Nina: Why she wouldn’t date any of her co-stars.' And then cut to two years later…it's funny that I said that, but you know what? It was honestly what I believed at the time. I didn’t want to be dating one of my costars—my goal on the show was to be professional. But sometimes you can’t help who you have a connection with, and you can only fight it for so long—which I did for a really, really long time.”
  

On Dealing With The Pressure Fame Can Bring
“I try not to read best-dressed lists or anything like that. For every good thing, there will often be a not-so-nice thing people would say. My mom sends me lots of messages like, 'You’re standing next to Kate Winslet! Oh my god, I love Kate Winslet!'”


On Being A Kid At Heart
“I want to go to Harry Potter Land! I actually should text Emma Watson to see if she can hook us up with a backstage pass or something. That’s the perk of doing a movie with Emma called The Perks Of Being A Wallflower.”


On The Importance Of "Girlfriend Time"
“Girls weekend with the Vampire Diaries girls has become a big deal! It's our quality time. It's so much fun to unload and not feel guilty complaining or talking about your insecurities or bonding over things that you thought you were on your own about. When we get there, we go to dinner or cook dinner together, watch movies, lie on the beach, and take tons of pictures."
